| 38. My husband used to work for Vistakon on several Acuvue lines... |

when I began wearing contacts he insisted that I get daily lenses as he said they had more issues with 2-week and 30-day than any other kind. The problem is with cleaning, most people don't have proper cleaning education. It could be solution, method or both.
He's not there any longer so now I can say he worked there, lol.
